Arachidonic Acid (CAS: 506-32-1) is mainly used as food additives. Arachidonic Acid belongs to a kind of polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid, which is highly biologically relevant. Arachidonic Acid is an important substance in the development of human brain and optic nerve. it plays an important role in the sensitivity of human intelligence and optic nerve. it can esterify cholesterol, increase the elasticity of blood vessels, and reduce the viscosity of blood, so it plays an important role in preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes and tumors. Arachidonic acid is a precursor of prostaglandin and thromboxane. Arachidonic acid can be increased during inflammation. It has the physiological effects of redness, swelling, heat and pain.
Function
1) Muscle Growth:
ARA is an important dietary component in support of the muscle anabolic process. Arachidonic acid is a regulator of localized muscle inflammation,and may be a central nutrient controlling the intensity of theanabolic/tissue-rebuilding response to weight training.
2) Alzheimer's Disease Supplementation of arachidonic acid during the early stages of this disease may actually be effective in reducing symptoms and slowing the disease progress.
3) Brain Arachidonic acid is one of the most abundant fatty acids in the brain, and is present in similar quantities to docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Arachidonic acid helps tomaintain hippocampal ,cell membrane fluidity and helps protect the brain from oxidative stress by activating peroxisomeproliferator-activated receptor gamma.
4) Bodybuilding Supplement Arachidonic acid is marketed as an anabolic bodybuilding supplement in a variety of products.
Application
1. A raw material for the synthesis of prostaglandins.
2. Regulates the permeability of human cell membrane.
3. The development of the optic nervous system is very important to the brain and nerve development of infants.
4. It also plays an important role in the treatment of coronary heart disease, diabetes and prevention of cerebrovascular diseases.
